Speaker 1 (00:47):
Jews.
Speaker 3 (00:47):
I'm the homegrow that knows a little bit about everything
and everybody.
Speaker 1 (00:51):
You know, if you don't lie about that, right, Larn.
Speaker 3 (00:53):
Came in hot don know as always I'm your homegirl
who knows a little bit about everything in every single body.
So it's time to get on into some topics. Beyonce
has officially made it into Alta with Sacred. Back in
I believe it was like February, Beyonce had actually announced
(01:15):
that she was headed into Alta stores with Sacred. I
think people were excited then, but I think now because
there's a visual to it, you know, people have been
talking about it a little bit more like that whole thing.
It's like, you know how future be like dressed up
and make it real For me, It's like it's real now.
So Beyonce posted a clip on her Instagram on Sunday,
(01:36):
April fifth, and in the video, she's smiling.
Speaker 1 (01:41):
She has a bottle of the Sacred.
Speaker 3 (01:43):
It's a hair oil that she's actually rubbing into her
hands and baby, she looked good.
Speaker 1 (01:48):
She's in Vivian Westwood. It's a low cut top. She
got the.
Speaker 3 (01:51):
Blonde layers flowing flip over to the side, and she's
using the hair oil to just kind of go through
her hair. Then she hands off the product to her mother,
Miss Tina Knowles, who uses it and they have fun
with it, and then they hand off the product to
someone else who's in this like sacred like uniform almost,
and then they walking into all ten and it's like
you see it, it's there, it's happening now, and it's like, girl,
(02:13):
go ahead, like I am so proud of you, Like yes,
it's like a it's like an unspoken language, and I
feel like, you know what I'm seeing happening right now
online is it's the reaction to that.
Speaker 1 (02:24):
Now.
Speaker 3 (02:25):
Don't get me wrong, there were the girls that had
their issues with the product, that with the brand when
it first came out, and they had their things to say.
But that leans into the reason why I never looked
into the TikTok reviews or anything like that for me.
And y'all might think I'm crazy, but I'm really into
like makeup, hair lashes, lipstick, lip glosses, like fashion, Like
(02:46):
I really enjoy and love.
Speaker 1 (02:48):
All of that stuff.
Speaker 3 (02:49):
And I also understand that, like everything doesn't work the
same for everybody, Like I really understand that in a
real way. So I've always said I wanted to try
Beyonce's brand, but I wanted to try it at a
time where like I knew, like, okay.
Speaker 1 (03:04):
I'm trying this. I'm trying hair growth. I'm being protective.
Speaker 3 (03:06):
I'm doing everything I need to do so that this
product can work its best, you know what I mean,
Like it's best vibes. And I'm in that space because
I've been wearing units, I've been wearing wigs, y'all know.
On the Breakfast Club, Charlotte makes a joke every single day,
but I know it's because they look good period. Shout
out to miss my tie on the Instagram my hair
silence from Philadelphia. But because I'm in this space of like,
(03:27):
you know, protecting my hair, I always think about the
fact that, like I want to do you know, something
under to make sure that I'm doing it.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
And this is not a paid you know anything.
Speaker 3 (03:36):
I wish I was getting a coin from Sacred Okay,
I'm just excited, and I think I'm excited also too,
because as a makeup girl, Lye and at one point
in time, Beyonce's product was only available on her website
and she's Beyonce, right, and it's her internet, it's Beyonce's
worldwide net if y'all did not know. But at the
same time, to be in stores is an accomplishment and
I think that her going online first and then going
(03:58):
into stores was a testament of her breaking that Beyonce effect.
Now we gonna talk about it because there is a
conversation around Beyonce about her not being vulnerable, vulnerable enough
to show her connection to the products that she sells
to market the products that she sells. More specifically, people
always compare her to Rihanna with Fincy, who is very
much like posting videos on Instagram every single day where
(04:22):
she's like trying on the lip glosses and she did
her Vogue fifty questions putting on the products. And you know,
like I think where Rihanna, she's a lot more like
relatable because and I'm not saying Beyonce is not. We
don't know her, but Rihanna She's shown us enough online
where we feel like we know her, and that really
helps for products. And I think as a black woman,
(04:45):
it's like I always try and support black things. So
like when I'm going into the you know these makeup stories,
I'm buying the fency. That's why I'm so excited about,
you know, Beyonce being in Alta because I am one
to order off the internet, but I'm an alto all
the time because my makeup now it's the easy pick up, right.
I purposely shot black on brands, not because they're black,
(05:05):
but because if they're good and they're black and they're
in these major stores, I do want to add to
these numbers. I want to add to the numbers that
are making other people say, you know what, we need
to put these in all of our stores. I know
how to gain goes right. Beyonce are not. Beyonce has
never had a product line. Beyonce has a reputation and
it's not I don't I don't think that it's anything
(05:26):
she's planned to do. But if we're being really honest,
Beyonce does have a reputation for putting out products, and
I'm not doing what the people think that they should do.
So two thousand and six, it was Hau Sadarion and
that was inspired by the three generations of women.
Speaker 1 (05:41):
So you had her.
Speaker 3 (05:42):
It was like her grandmother, her mother, and then it's
like boom and turn to ludge. Twenty ten Beyonce Heat,
which was her fragrance. I do remember her doing a fragrance,
but I wouldn't even have remembered the name if you
didn't just put that up on Google, and I'm not
being shady. I'm saying not to make a point, and
we're gonna get back to that point. Twenty ten, she
did Parkway Entertainment, which is still around. That is her
entertainment company that books all of her like tours and
(06:03):
all that stuff. Twenty sixteen, she did Ivy Park.
Speaker 1 (06:09):
Ivy Park.
Speaker 3 (06:10):
I feel like Ivy Park was a big conversation because
it was Beyonce, and she did great seeding and great
gifting and pr sins to different celebrities. But at the
same time, I don't think that like the product was
like the most loved. If I'm just being honest, I
think that a lot of us bought it. I think
(06:30):
a lot of us wore I wasn't mad at some
of the pieces, like that purple jumpsuit with the orange.
If anything I had to buy, it would have been that.
But I didn't buy Ivy Park. It was not all
completely my favorite. And again I'm a part of the beehive,
but I'm just being honest. But then also too, she
just dropped her whiskey that came and went as well.
And when the whiskey came and went, I think a
lot of people started having a conversation that I'm mentioning
(06:52):
where it's like people are like, Okay, Beyonce is super
uber successful as a music artist, as a performing artist,
as a touring artist, as a creative right, creating specials
you know, around her tours and stuff like that for
Netflix and all these platforms. But can she sell a product?
There are literally headlines that lean on can Beyonce seller product?
Speaker 1 (07:11):
I think with The.
Speaker 3 (07:11):
Sacred this is her chance to show people not only
can she sell a product, but she really knows what
she's doing, like she it's really embedded in her. So
I mentioned earlier that Beyonce's mom is Sina knows has
been doing hair for some time. And I remember watching
a documentary that Beyonce had, and the thing that stood
(07:32):
out the most of me was she actually told us
that like she'd be doing her own hair a lot.
I was surprised by that because I'm like, it's Beyonce,
Like what do you mean? And I know she has
hair stylist, right, but I think you and your person
like I used to assist in the shop. So whenever
my hair is not right, and like I have a
moment where like you know, in a lace is not
tenant well or like whatever.
Speaker 1 (07:53):
I'm like, bro, what is going on?
Speaker 3 (07:55):
Because I know how, I know what it takes to
simple fix this, so when it's not.
Speaker 1 (08:01):
And her whole point at that time.
Speaker 3 (08:03):
Was like she know herself the best, you know with
hair works on her face and all of that. But
a lot of that and she talked about it in
the documentary comes from her mother, Miss Tina Knowles, has
been involved in hair care for over thirty years. So
Miss Tina knows is the vice chairperson of Sacred for
some reason, the same way I trust Rihanna with my
(08:23):
makeup because she's always so cute and like I'm watching
her put on makeup and use it different ways and
whatever whatever. And then I tried the product and it's fire.
It's sustains as good. I feel like that about Beyonce
and hair care. And I know, like again Beyonce said
backlash about can she sell the product. She's had backlash
about her actual hair and the hairsauce that she's worn.
(08:44):
But for your mom to be in hair care for
I'm thirty three years old, y'all, that's a whole nother baby.
For your mom to be in hair care a whole
nother baby. Thirty years at some point, there's no way
that you didn't learn and pick up. And y'all know
that her mom used to do so much for her
and child. I mean clothing house of Darion hair. I'm
pretty sure you have to learn to pick up on something.
(09:06):
And she's involved, so it's gonna be there. I am
really happy for Beyonce, really happy for the transition that
she's making into the altar stores. And I think a
lot of people would be like, well, it's Beyonce. Of
course it's easy for her to get into the altar stores.
But I want you to know if that product is
not selling, ain't no store gonna keep it. I don't
care who you are.
Speaker 1 (09:25):
Your family's not doing thirty years of anything. You don't
understand it.
Speaker 3 (09:28):
The same way to her dad understands business and it
was able to make her into Beyonce, is the same
way that Beyonce, who is now this business huge brand
business development guru, also understands hair care.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
Period. Now.
Speaker 3 (09:47):
In other news, child, we're going to the ghetto. So
there's a New York City woman who decided to punch
a pro life activist because she feels like she it
was provoked into violence.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
So the New York City.
Speaker 3 (10:03):
Woman is a woman named Brianna Rivers. Brianna Rivers believes
that you should be able to have abortions period. Make
your own decisions. Is your life, do your thing, you
know what I mean, do what you need to do.
There is another woman, this woman. Her name is Savannah,
Savannah Craven. She has a platform. Her platform is via YouTube,
(10:26):
and a lot of her videos that she makes is
all about being against abortion and certain women's rights and
low key kind of trolling people who are So she
does these things where she's out on the street and
she sees different people and she talks to them about
how she feels about, you know, her stance and things
like abortion shouldn't be legal and you're killing.
Speaker 1 (10:48):
A person and all that stuff.
Speaker 3 (10:51):
But then you know, she runs into a woman like
Brianna now in the video. And let's just let me
paraphrase this by saying that at first, first when we
saw this, there was like a short video, very very
short video that had been released. That video went viral
online of Brianna, who is the woman who walked up
and began to be interviewed. So she's the interviewee in
(11:13):
Savannah who is the interviewer. Their interaction it's very short,
and then you see Brianna gets so triggered and so
pissed off that she punches Savannah on in the face.
And baby, when I say she clopped that tea, Savannah
walked away looking like a tea bag. Okay, it was bad.
So that was released first. After that was released, there
(11:35):
was a longer form video that was released, and I
went and watched the longer form video on Savannah's page
on her YouTube channel. So they're having a conversation and
in the beginning of the conversation, it's very friendly. You
see Brianna walk up. Brianna, you know what I mean,
young girl from the Bronx. She walks up like ooh,
you know, like like its skin tone, it's giving, like
(11:56):
you know, basically like you know, she's a woman of color,
like hey, I see another woman of color, or you know,
I'm assuming that Savannah is a woman of call. Her
she does appear that way. She's like, Okay, you're not
with it, Let's do the interview. What you're doing, like,
let me know, boom, So the ny start having a conversation.
The conversation opens up with with Savannah asking does Brianna
(12:17):
know about playing parenthood?
Speaker 1 (12:19):
What you do there and while you go there?
Speaker 3 (12:21):
So Brianna answers, and in her answer she mentions abortions,
and she mentions the right to be able to go
and have an abortion because you know, you might've been young,
you made some mistakes, or you know, you just you
don't you can't take care of your kid and you
don't want to have a kid and put them into
the foster care system. And you know that whole conversation.
So both of them at this time are making you know,
(12:43):
points right. So you have Savannah, who's over here like
there are other options, you don't have to do this,
There are other options, you don't.
Speaker 1 (12:51):
Have to do this.
Speaker 3 (12:52):
And then you have Brianna over here, who's like, look, girl,
I hear you, but like, why you think you so perfect?
Speaker 1 (12:58):
Nobody's perfect? Y'all? The questions got the questioning. They started
arguing about.
Speaker 3 (13:04):
They started arguing about, you know, not birthing kids who
come from you know, molestation, or kids who were in
foster homes.
Speaker 1 (13:13):
You could abort the kids before they.
Speaker 3 (13:14):
Even have to go to a farst home to the
point where Brianna, who was the interviewee, she laid hands
on Savannah Savannah, Now, I mean I saw her on
Fox News and she said that she was suffering from
two stitches right below her eyebrow and that she was
in the hospital. She had posted a bunch of pictures
(13:35):
after this, you know, the whole physical back and forth.
I wouldn't even say back and forth because maybe miss Savannah,
the interview or didn't get a hit end to save
her life, so it wasn't the back and forth. But
after she was hit by the interviewer, she did go
to the hospital. Her husband, who was the person behind
the camera, actually called nine to one one. So there
(13:55):
was a police report called a filed. I did reach
out to law enforcement sources here in New York who
tell me that the report came in as an assault.
The report came in as an individual punched a twenty
three year old female victim with a closed fist, causing laceration.
The victim refused medical treatment, so Savannah, the interviewer, refused
medical treatment. There were no arrests and the investigation remains ongoing.
(14:19):
Now I did ask whether there going to be any
charges foed or anything like that against Brianna, because I
couldn't find that in any of the stories that I
was looking at, and there has been no response. But
they did confirm the fact to me that there was
a police report that was released, but that was it.
Speaker 2 (14:37):
Now.
Speaker 3 (14:37):
Brianna did actually go on her instag I'm sorry on
her Instagram on her Facebook and respond and she posted
and said I need a platform to share my side
of events. She has seven million views making me out
to be a child killing monster.
Speaker 1 (14:51):
When she knows the truth she railroaded me into all
of this.
Speaker 3 (14:54):
She needs to release the unedited footage with her relentless
antagonization on the subject that is very touchy. I will
not allow my Emma should be defamed by this woman's action.
Anyone who knows me knows how respectful I am. I
don't even litter. There's no way you believe that I'm
punching people for disagreeing with my point of view. And
her caption on this said to Savannah, I sincerely apologize,
(15:15):
but can I sit around and allow for you to
continue to pushing this one sided narrative. I understand hands
being pulled on someone is never the answer, but throwing
rocks in honey in hand is so worse. She knows
the truth and she needs to release the footage in
its entirety. Savannah is a professional antagonist, not a reporter.
Reporters in quotation marks, and the truth will be told.
So what she's saying is that the video that we saw,
(15:36):
even in the full, because that was important for me.
I want to go back and watch the fool the
video we saw even in the full. She's saying, there's
more to it, that she was antagonized, And I'm not
even gonna hold y'all. I know that we agree and disagree,
especially in times right now where like everybody don't love
who the president is, love what the administration is doing,
love with being what is being overturned or not. But
(15:57):
I ain't never cared that much. It just sucks somebody
real quick for no reason, unless you're being directly disrespectful
to me, so like you calling me a slur you whatever,
That's different. This was not that their conversation wasn't even
about anything personal to the two of them. It was
just a general conversation about pro life and pro choice.
(16:17):
I was watching, like, well, why is this get so
upset I will say that Homegirl. The interviewer Savannah, she
was kind of like giving the energy, like girl, you dumb,
like like it was a little astute, but not nothing
that deserved to be pushing the face the way she don't.
Speaker 1 (16:35):
She wasn't ready for that.
Speaker 3 (16:36):
She came uptown with her nice little dress on, and
I'm cracking up because they when she walked up, she said,
you went from complimenting my dress tensaulting me. And I'm like, girl,
you came uptown with that nice little urban off of
to dress on and this curly hair, and you know
this husband behind the camera. You thought she was gonna
be able to get one off on these people up here.
Don't come into it, because here's the only thing that
I feel. Don't come into minority neighborhoods talking about topics
(16:59):
that affect them in real life every single day in
a real way, because you don't know what you she
and I said, this wasn't personal to anybody, but I
watched this and I thought about it, well, homegirl must
have been triggered by something. You don't know what people
are going through. One of her biggest points, Brianna, the
girl who did Socker, was like, yo, you don't know
financially the position people are in to be able to
(17:20):
successful successfully bring a kid into this world. Man is
out here talking about they don't want babies. Women don't
do that. That's hell for y'all. You never know where
a person is, you know what I mean As a
person that interviews people, y'all know, I try to line.
Speaker 1 (17:35):
I do, but I would never.
Speaker 3 (17:37):
Be personally disrespectful where if I feel the energy is
like moving in a way where like a person is
like off it in a real way, like it's not
even worth it.
Speaker 1 (17:45):
It's an interview, It's not that deep. I'm gonna fall back.
So again.
Speaker 3 (17:52):
I'ma be waiting to see if actual charges are pressed.
I'm actually I reached out to both Brianna who was
the woman who socked the interviewer, and Savannah, who is
the interviewer that had you know, her hands put on her.
And I'm not saying that any of this was right.
I'm just saying I see kind of both sides of it.
I think, because I fully don't know Brianna's side, the
woman who was triggered or whatever happened, whyever she hit her,
(18:15):
I don't fully see her side, but I did reach
out to both sides because I'm trying to understand more
and we will bring it right here to you guys
on the.
Speaker 1 (18:22):
Ladies with Bun Rosa. This has been episode six.
Speaker 3 (18:24):
I appreciate you guys for tuning in and like I
tell y'all always, at the end of the day, there
are so many other places and so many other people
that you could be here talking about all this stuff
with what you choose to be right here. I appreciate you, guys.
I will see you guys in my next episode.
Speaks to the Plannet.

So Beyonce posted a clip on her Instagram on Sunday,

Speaker 1 (01:41):
She has a bottle of the Sacred.
Speaker 3 (01:43):
It's a hair oil that she's actually rubbing into her
hands and baby, she looked good.
Speaker 1 (01:48):
She's in Vivian Westwood. It's a low cut top. She
got the.
Speaker 3 (01:51):
Blonde layers flowing flip over to the side, and she's
using the hair oil to just kind of go through
her hair. Then she hands off the product to her mother,
Miss Tina Knowles, who uses it and they have fun
with it, and then they hand off the product to
someone else who's in this like sacred like uniform almost,
and then they walking into all ten and it's like
you see it, it's there, it's happening now, and it's like, girl,
(02:13):
go ahead, like I am so proud of you, Like yes,
it's like a it's like an unspoken language, and I
feel like, you know what I'm seeing happening right now
online is it's the reaction to that.
Speaker 1 (02:24):
Now.
Speaker 3 (02:25):
Don't get me wrong, there were the girls that had
their issues with the product, that with the brand when
it first came out, and they had their things to say.
But that leans into the reason why I never looked
into the TikTok reviews or anything like that for me.
And y'all might think I'm crazy, but I'm really into
like makeup, hair lashes, lipstick, lip glosses, like fashion, Like
(02:46):
I really enjoy and love.
Speaker 1 (02:48):
All of that stuff.
Speaker 3 (02:49):
And I also understand that, like everything doesn't work the
same for everybody, Like I really understand that in a
real way. So I've always said I wanted to try
Beyonce's brand, but I wanted to try it at a
time where like I knew, like, okay.
Speaker 1 (03:04):
I'm trying this. I'm trying hair growth. I'm being protective.
Speaker 3 (03:06):
I'm doing everything I need to do so that this
product can work its best, you know what I mean,
Like it's best vibes. And I'm in that space because
I've been wearing units, I've been wearing wigs, y'all know.
On the Breakfast Club, Charlotte makes a joke every single day,
but I know it's because they look good period. Shout
out to miss my tie on the Instagram my hair
silence from Philadelphia. But because I'm in this space of like,
(03:27):
you know, protecting my hair, I always think about the
fact that, like I want to do you know, something
under to make sure that I'm doing it.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
And this is not a paid you know anything.
Speaker 3 (03:36):
I wish I was getting a coin from Sacred Okay,
I'm just excited, and I think I'm excited also too,
because as a makeup girl, Lye and at one point
in time, Beyonce's product was only available on her website
and she's Beyonce, right, and it's her internet, it's Beyonce's
worldwide net if y'all did not know. But at the
same time, to be in stores is an accomplishment and
I think that her going online first and then going
(03:58):
into stores was a testament of her breaking that Beyonce effect.
Now we gonna talk about it because there is a
conversation around Beyonce about her not being vulnerable, vulnerable enough
to show her connection to the products that she sells
to market the products that she sells. More specifically, people
always compare her to Rihanna with Fincy, who is very
much like posting videos on Instagram every single day where
(04:22):
she's like trying on the lip glosses and she did
her Vogue fifty questions putting on the products. And you know,
like I think where Rihanna, she's a lot more like
relatable because and I'm not saying Beyonce is not. We
don't know her, but Rihanna She's shown us enough online
where we feel like we know her, and that really
helps for products. And I think as a black woman,
(04:45):
it's like I always try and support black things. So
like when I'm going into the you know these makeup stories,
I'm buying the fency. That's why I'm so excited about,
you know, Beyonce being in Alta because I am one
to order off the internet, but I'm an alto all
the time because my makeup now it's the easy pick up, right.
I purposely shot black on brands, not because they're black,
(05:05):
but because if they're good and they're black and they're
in these major stores, I do want to add to
these numbers. I want to add to the numbers that
are making other people say, you know what, we need
to put these in all of our stores. I know
how to gain goes right. Beyonce are not. Beyonce has
never had a product line. Beyonce has a reputation and
it's not I don't I don't think that it's anything
(05:26):
she's planned to do. But if we're being really honest,
Beyonce does have a reputation for putting out products, and
I'm not doing what the people think that they should do.
So two thousand and six, it was Hau Sadarion and
that was inspired by the three generations of women.
Speaker 1 (05:41):
So you had her.
Speaker 3 (05:42):
It was like her grandmother, her mother, and then it's
like boom and turn to ludge. Twenty ten Beyonce Heat,
which was her fragrance. I do remember her doing a fragrance,
but I wouldn't even have remembered the name if you
didn't just put that up on Google, and I'm not
being shady. I'm saying not to make a point, and
we're gonna get back to that point. Twenty ten, she
did Parkway Entertainment, which is still around. That is her
entertainment company that books all of her like tours and
(06:03):
all that stuff. Twenty sixteen, she did Ivy Park.
Speaker 1 (06:09):
Ivy Park.
Speaker 3 (06:10):
I feel like Ivy Park was a big conversation because
it was Beyonce, and she did great seeding and great
gifting and pr sins to different celebrities. But at the
same time, I don't think that like the product was
like the most loved. If I'm just being honest, I
think that a lot of us bought it. I think
(06:30):
a lot of us wore I wasn't mad at some
of the pieces, like that purple jumpsuit with the orange.
If anything I had to buy, it would have been that.
But I didn't buy Ivy Park. It was not all
completely my favorite. And again I'm a part of the beehive,
but I'm just being honest. But then also too, she
just dropped her whiskey that came and went as well.
And when the whiskey came and went, I think a
lot of people started having a conversation that I'm mentioning
(06:52):
where it's like people are like, Okay, Beyonce is super
uber successful as a music artist, as a performing artist,
as a touring artist, as a creative right, creating specials
you know, around her tours and stuff like that for
Netflix and all these platforms. But can she sell a product?
There are literally headlines that lean on can Beyonce seller product?
Speaker 1 (07:11):
I think with The.
Speaker 3 (07:11):
Sacred this is her chance to show people not only
can she sell a product, but she really knows what
she's doing, like she it's really embedded in her. So
I mentioned earlier that Beyonce's mom is Sina knows has
been doing hair for some time. And I remember watching
a documentary that Beyonce had, and the thing that stood
(07:32):
out the most of me was she actually told us
that like she'd be doing her own hair a lot.
I was surprised by that because I'm like, it's Beyonce,
Like what do you mean? And I know she has
hair stylist, right, but I think you and your person
like I used to assist in the shop. So whenever
my hair is not right, and like I have a
moment where like you know, in a lace is not
tenant well or like whatever.
Speaker 1 (07:53):
I'm like, bro, what is going on?
Speaker 3 (07:55):
Because I know how, I know what it takes to
simple fix this, so when it's not.
Speaker 1 (08:01):
And her whole point at that time.
Speaker 3 (08:03):
Was like she know herself the best, you know with
hair works on her face and all of that. But
a lot of that and she talked about it in
the documentary comes from her mother, Miss Tina Knowles, has
been involved in hair care for over thirty years. So
Miss Tina knows is the vice chairperson of Sacred for
some reason, the same way I trust Rihanna with my
(08:23):
makeup because she's always so cute and like I'm watching
her put on makeup and use it different ways and
whatever whatever. And then I tried the product and it's fire.
It's sustains as good. I feel like that about Beyonce
and hair care. And I know, like again Beyonce said
backlash about can she sell the product. She's had backlash
about her actual hair and the hairsauce that she's worn.
(08:44):
But for your mom to be in hair care for
I'm thirty three years old, y'all, that's a whole nother baby.
For your mom to be in hair care a whole
nother baby. Thirty years at some point, there's no way
that you didn't learn and pick up. And y'all know
that her mom used to do so much for her
and child. I mean clothing house of Darion hair. I'm
pretty sure you have to learn to pick up on something.
(09:06):
And she's involved, so it's gonna be there. I am
really happy for Beyonce, really happy for the transition that
she's making into the altar stores. And I think a
lot of people would be like, well, it's Beyonce. Of
course it's easy for her to get into the altar stores.
But I want you to know if that product is
not selling, ain't no store gonna keep it. I don't
care who you are.
Speaker 1 (09:25):
Your family's not doing thirty years of anything. You don't
understand it.
Speaker 3 (09:28):
The same way to her dad understands business and it
was able to make her into Beyonce, is the same
way that Beyonce, who is now this business huge brand
business development guru, also understands hair care.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
Period. Now.
Speaker 3 (09:47):
In other news, child, we're going to the ghetto. So
there's a New York City woman who decided to punch
a pro life activist because she feels like she it
was provoked into violence.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
So the New York City.
Speaker 3 (10:03):
Woman is a woman named Brianna Rivers. Brianna Rivers believes
that you should be able to have abortions period. Make
your own decisions. Is your life, do your thing, you
know what I mean, do what you need to do.
There is another woman, this woman. Her name is Savannah,
Savannah Craven. She has a platform. Her platform is via YouTube,
(10:26):
and a lot of her videos that she makes is
all about being against abortion and certain women's rights and
low key kind of trolling people who are So she
does these things where she's out on the street and
she sees different people and she talks to them about
how she feels about, you know, her stance and things
like abortion shouldn't be legal and you're killing.
Speaker 1 (10:48):
A person and all that stuff.
Speaker 3 (10:51):
But then you know, she runs into a woman like
Brianna now in the video. And let's just let me
paraphrase this by saying that at first, first when we
saw this, there was like a short video, very very
short video that had been released. That video went viral
online of Brianna, who is the woman who walked up
and began to be interviewed. So she's the interviewee in
(11:13):
Savannah who is the interviewer. Their interaction it's very short,
and then you see Brianna gets so triggered and so
pissed off that she punches Savannah on in the face.
And baby, when I say she clopped that tea, Savannah
walked away looking like a tea bag. Okay, it was bad.
So that was released first. After that was released, there
(11:35):
was a longer form video that was released, and I
went and watched the longer form video on Savannah's page
on her YouTube channel. So they're having a conversation and
in the beginning of the conversation, it's very friendly. You
see Brianna walk up. Brianna, you know what I mean,
young girl from the Bronx. She walks up like ooh,
you know, like like its skin tone, it's giving, like
(11:56):
you know, basically like you know, she's a woman of color,
like hey, I see another woman of color, or you know,
I'm assuming that Savannah is a woman of call. Her
she does appear that way. She's like, Okay, you're not
with it, Let's do the interview. What you're doing, like,
let me know, boom, So the ny start having a conversation.
The conversation opens up with with Savannah asking does Brianna
(12:17):
know about playing parenthood?
Speaker 1 (12:19):
What you do there and while you go there?
Speaker 3 (12:21):
So Brianna answers, and in her answer she mentions abortions,
and she mentions the right to be able to go
and have an abortion because you know, you might've been young,
you made some mistakes, or you know, you just you
don't you can't take care of your kid and you
don't want to have a kid and put them into
the foster care system. And you know that whole conversation.
So both of them at this time are making you know,
(12:43):
points right. So you have Savannah, who's over here like
there are other options, you don't have to do this,
There are other options, you don't.
Speaker 1 (12:51):
Have to do this.
Speaker 3 (12:52):
And then you have Brianna over here, who's like, look, girl,
I hear you, but like, why you think you so perfect?
Speaker 1 (12:58):
Nobody's perfect? Y'all? The questions got the questioning. They started
arguing about.
Speaker 3 (13:04):
They started arguing about, you know, not birthing kids who
come from you know, molestation, or kids who were in
foster homes.
Speaker 1 (13:13):
You could abort the kids before they.
Speaker 3 (13:14):
Even have to go to a farst home to the
point where Brianna, who was the interviewee, she laid hands
on Savannah Savannah, Now, I mean I saw her on
Fox News and she said that she was suffering from
two stitches right below her eyebrow and that she was
in the hospital. She had posted a bunch of pictures
(13:35):
after this, you know, the whole physical back and forth.
I wouldn't even say back and forth because maybe miss Savannah,
the interview or didn't get a hit end to save
her life, so it wasn't the back and forth. But
after she was hit by the interviewer, she did go
to the hospital. Her husband, who was the person behind
the camera, actually called nine to one one. So there
(13:55):
was a police report called a filed. I did reach
out to law enforcement sources here in New York who
tell me that the report came in as an assault.
The report came in as an individual punched a twenty
three year old female victim with a closed fist, causing laceration.
The victim refused medical treatment, so Savannah, the interviewer, refused
medical treatment. There were no arrests and the investigation remains ongoing.
(14:19):
Now I did ask whether there going to be any
charges foed or anything like that against Brianna, because I
couldn't find that in any of the stories that I
was looking at, and there has been no response. But
they did confirm the fact to me that there was
a police report that was released, but that was it.
Speaker 2 (14:37):
Now.
Speaker 3 (14:37):
Brianna did actually go on her instag I'm sorry on
her Instagram on her Facebook and respond and she posted
and said I need a platform to share my side
of events. She has seven million views making me out
to be a child killing monster.
Speaker 1 (14:51):
When she knows the truth she railroaded me into all
of this.
Speaker 3 (14:54):
She needs to release the unedited footage with her relentless
antagonization on the subject that is very touchy. I will
not allow my Emma should be defamed by this woman's action.
Anyone who knows me knows how respectful I am. I
don't even litter. There's no way you believe that I'm
punching people for disagreeing with my point of view. And
her caption on this said to Savannah, I sincerely apologize,
(15:15):
but can I sit around and allow for you to
continue to pushing this one sided narrative. I understand hands
being pulled on someone is never the answer, but throwing
rocks in honey in hand is so worse. She knows
the truth and she needs to release the footage in
its entirety. Savannah is a professional antagonist, not a reporter.
Reporters in quotation marks, and the truth will be told.
So what she's saying is that the video that we saw,
(15:36):
even in the full, because that was important for me.
I want to go back and watch the fool the
video we saw even in the full. She's saying, there's
more to it, that she was antagonized, And I'm not
even gonna hold y'all. I know that we agree and disagree,
especially in times right now where like everybody don't love
who the president is, love what the administration is doing,
love with being what is being overturned or not. But
(15:57):
I ain't never cared that much. It just sucks somebody
real quick for no reason, unless you're being directly disrespectful
to me, so like you calling me a slur you whatever,
That's different. This was not that their conversation wasn't even
about anything personal to the two of them. It was
just a general conversation about pro life and pro choice.
(16:17):
I was watching, like, well, why is this get so
upset I will say that Homegirl. The interviewer Savannah, she
was kind of like giving the energy, like girl, you dumb,
like like it was a little astute, but not nothing
that deserved to be pushing the face the way she don't.
Speaker 1 (16:35):
She wasn't ready for that.
Speaker 3 (16:36):
She came uptown with her nice little dress on, and
I'm cracking up because they when she walked up, she said,
you went from complimenting my dress tensaulting me. And I'm like, girl,
you came uptown with that nice little urban off of
to dress on and this curly hair, and you know
this husband behind the camera. You thought she was gonna
be able to get one off on these people up here.
Don't come into it, because here's the only thing that
I feel. Don't come into minority neighborhoods talking about topics
(16:59):
that affect them in real life every single day in
a real way, because you don't know what you she
and I said, this wasn't personal to anybody, but I
watched this and I thought about it, well, homegirl must
have been triggered by something. You don't know what people
are going through. One of her biggest points, Brianna, the
girl who did Socker, was like, yo, you don't know
financially the position people are in to be able to
(17:20):
successful successfully bring a kid into this world. Man is
out here talking about they don't want babies. Women don't
do that. That's hell for y'all. You never know where
a person is, you know what I mean As a
person that interviews people, y'all know, I try to line.
Speaker 1 (17:35):
I do, but I would never.
Speaker 3 (17:37):
Be personally disrespectful where if I feel the energy is
like moving in a way where like a person is
like off it in a real way, like it's not
even worth it.
Speaker 1 (17:45):
It's an interview, It's not that deep. I'm gonna fall back.
So again.
Speaker 3 (17:52):
I'ma be waiting to see if actual charges are pressed.
I'm actually I reached out to both Brianna who was
the woman who socked the interviewer, and Savannah, who is
the interviewer that had you know, her hands put on her.
And I'm not saying that any of this was right.
I'm just saying I see kind of both sides of it.
I think, because I fully don't know Brianna's side, the
woman who was triggered or whatever happened, whyever she hit her,
(18:15):
I don't fully see her side, but I did reach
out to both sides because I'm trying to understand more
and we will bring it right here to you guys
on the.
Speaker 1 (18:22):
Ladies with Bun Rosa. This has been episode six.
Speaker 3 (18:24):
I appreciate you guys for tuning in and like I
tell y'all always, at the end of the day, there
are so many other places and so many other people
that you could be here talking about all this stuff
with what you choose to be right here. I appreciate you, guys.
I will see you guys in my next episode.
